Since few days i try hard too understand why my code return a "IndexError", i would get 150 instagrams likers on my list, so i discovery just recently when i scrolling into the likes pop-up it generating a new div according to my scrolls:
On yellow : the new div appeared when i scroll
For this im made a loop who uses a "scroll script" every 5th likers
My code :
fBody = browser.find_element_by_xpath("/html/body/div[5]/div/div/div[2]/div")
raw_elems = browser.find_elements_by_xpath("//body//div//span[#class='Jv7Aj mArmR MqpiF ']//a[#class='FPmhX notranslate MBL3Z']")
for i in range(0,150):
i += 1
if(i%6) == 5 :
browser.execute_script('arguments[0].scrollTop = arguments[0].scrollTop + arguments[0].offsetHeight;', fBody)
print("-------------------------SCROLL-----------------------------------")
sleep(10)
current = raw_elems[i].get_attribute('href')
followers.append(current)
print(current)
sleep(1)
print(followers)
I really don't understand why at the end of 10th username, it return me "list index out of range",
Paece ^ ^
I cannot test this code because it requires doing login part.
But in general you should wait for the list of your elements to be visible or present and then iterate over it.
Create an empty list and append values to it. Scrolling part check by yourself.
I did not remove your waits, but you should think about using Selenium's WebDriverWait methods.
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path='/snap/bin/chromium.chromedriver')
# do login part here
#
# Adding wait here
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 15)
fBody = driver.find_element_by_xpath("/html/body/div[5]/div/div/div[2]/div")
wait.until(EC.presence_of_all_elements_located((By.XPATH, "//body//div//span[#class='Jv7Aj mArmR MqpiF ']//a[#class='FPmhX notranslate MBL3Z']"))) # waiting for the list to become present
raw_elems = driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//body//div//span[#class='Jv7Aj mArmR MqpiF ']//a[#class='FPmhX notranslate MBL3Z']")
followers = []
for el in raw_elems:
# driver.execute_script('arguments[0].scrollTop = arguments[0].scrollTop + arguments[0].offsetHeight;', fBody)
# print("-------------------------SCROLL-----------------------------------")
# time.sleep(10)
current = el.get_attribute('href')
followers.append(current)
print(current)
time.sleep(1)
print(followers)
When browser runs JavaScript to add new element then you have to use again find_elements
if i % 6 == 5 :
browser.execute_script('arguments[0].scrollTop = arguments[0].scrollTop + arguments[0].offsetHeight;', fBody)
print("-------------------------SCROLL-----------------------------------")
sleep(10)
# get all elements again
raw_elems = driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//body//div//span[#class='Jv7Aj mArmR MqpiF ']//a[#class='FPmhX notranslate MBL3Z']")

I have the following code that scrapes some information I need from a website. However, there are 61 pages I need to go through and scrape the same data that requires me to click on the 'Next' button to go to the next page with the url remaining the same.
I know it is possible to use driver.find_element_by_link_text('Next').click() to go to the next page but I am not sure how to include this in my code.

Answering to your question, "I don't know how I would put it in my code"
Counter iii is used to repeat your existing code 60 times.
I cannot test the entire code, but I tested the loops.
For the sake of simplicity, in the code below I removed the element scraping so I could focus the test on repeating the clicks in the Next button, which is your question.
If you are going to test on your side, ensure you replace
print('your stuff would stay here!')
with the actual element scraping block that you have in your original code.
Hope it helps!

I want to create a script to keep scrolling until the desired element is found using:

touch.long_press(x=500, y=1800).move_to(x=500, y=400).release().perform()
time.sleep(2)

Can anyone help me with that? Thanks in advance.
Mention: Not all the elements are visible and that's why I need to scroll the page through the script.
I've tried a few methods for scrolling webpage to element. Some of them work but scrolled down page to a place just above element I needed. The best working was the JavaScript one:
element = driver.find_element_by_id('element_id')
context.driver.execute_script("arguments[0].scrollIntoView();", element)
element.click()
With Python3 and selenium I want to automate the search on a public information site. In this site it is necessary to enter the name of a person, then select the spelling chosen for that name (without or with accents or name variations), access a page with the list of lawsuits found and in this list you can access the page of each case.

}

# Return a page to click on next process
driver.execute_script("window.history.go(-1)")
# Close driver
driver.quit()
In this case I captured the number of link pages (3) and the total number of links (84). So my initial idea was to do the "for" three times and within them split the 84 links
The direct address of each link is in XPATH (//*[#id="idBlocoInternoLinhasProcesso"]/div[41]/span[1]/span[1]/span[1]/span[2]/a) which I replace with the "item" to click
For example, when it arrives at number 42 I have an error because the first page only goes up to 41
My problem is how to go to the second page and then restart only "for" secondary
I think the ideal would be to know the exact number of links on each of the three pages
Anyone have any ideas?
Code below is "Capture routine":
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 20)
#...
while True:
links = wait.until(EC.presence_of_all_elements_located((By.XPATH, "//span[contains(#class,'classSpanNumeroRegistro')]")))
print("links len", len(links))
for i in range(1, len(links) + 1):
# Access the direct link and click
.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, f"(//span[contains(#class,'classSpanNumeroRegistro')])[{i}]//a"))).click()
# Run tests to get data
try:
num_unico = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="idProcessoDetalhesBloco1"]/div[6]/span[2]/a').text
except NoSuchElementException:
num_unico = "sem_numero_unico"
try:
nome_proc = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="idSpanClasseDescricao"]').text
except NoSuchElementException:
nome_proc = "sem_nome_encontrado"
try:
data_autu = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="idProcessoDetalhesBloco1"]/div[5]/span[2]').text
except NoSuchElementException:
data_autu = "sem_data_encontrada"
# Fills dictionary and list
dicionario = {"num_unico": num_unico,
"nome_proc": nome_proc,
"data_autu": data_autu
}
processos.append(dicionario)
# Return a page to click on next process
driver.execute_script("window.history.go(-1)")
# wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.CLASS_NAME, "classSpanPaginacaoImagensDireita")))
next_page = driver.find_elements_by_css_selector(".classSpanPaginacaoProximaPagina")
if len(next_page) == 0:
break
next_page[0].click()
You can try run the loop until next button is present on the screen. the logic will look like this,
try:
next_page = driver.find_element_by_class_name('classSpanPaginacaoProximaPagina')
if(next_page.is_displayed()):
next_page.click()
except NoSuchElementException:
print('next page does not exists')
I have a python script using selenium to go to a given Instagram profile and iterate over the user's followers. On the instagram website when one clicks to see the list of followers, a pop-up opens with the accounts listed (here's a screenshot of the site)
However both visually and in the html, only 12 accounts are shown. In order to see more one has to scroll down, so I tried doing this with the Keys.PAGE_DOWN input.

#go to profile
driver.get("https://www.instagram.com/{}/".format(username))
#go to followers list
followers = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a[#href='/{}/followers/']".format(username))
followers.click()
time.sleep(tryTime)
#find all li elements in list
fBody = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[#role='dialog']")
fBody.send_keys(Keys.PAGE_DOWN)
fList = fBody.find_elements_by_tag("li")
print("fList len is {}".format(len(fList)))
time.sleep(tryTime)
print("ended")
driver.quit()
When I try to run this I get the following error:
Message: unknown error: cannot focus element
I know this is probably because I'm using the wrong element for fBody, but I don't know which would be the right one. Does anybody know which element I should send the PAGE_DOWN key to, or if there is another way to load the accounts?
Any help is much appreciated!
the element you're looking is //div[#class='isgrP'] and Keys.PAGE_DOWN is not work for scrollable div.
Your variable fList hold old value, you need to find again the elements after scroll.
#find all li elements in list
fBody = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[#class='isgrP']")
scroll = 0
while scroll < 5: # scroll 5 times
driver.execute_script('arguments[0].scrollTop = arguments[0].scrollTop + arguments[0].offsetHeight;', fBody)
time.sleep(tryTime)
scroll += 1
fList = driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//div[#class='isgrP']//li")
print("fList len is {}".format(len(fList)))
print("ended")
#driver.quit()
The above code works fine if you add iteration (for) with range
for i in range(1, 4):
try:
#find all li elements in list
fBody = self.driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[#class='isgrP']")
scroll = 0
while scroll < 5: # scroll 5 times
self.driver.execute_script('arguments[0].scrollTop = arguments[0].scrollTop + arguments[0].offsetHeight;', fBody)
time.sleep(2)
scroll += 1
fList = self.driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//div[#class='isgrP']//li")
print("fList len is {}".format(len(fList)))
except Exception as e:
print(e, "canot scrol")
try:
#get tags with a
hrefs_in_view = self.driver.find_elements_by_tag_name('a')
# finding relevant hrefs
hrefs_in_view = [elem.get_attribute('title') for elem in hrefs_in_view]
[pic_hrefs.append(title) for title in hrefs_in_view if title not in pic_hrefs]
print("Check: pic href length " + str(len(pic_hrefs)))
except Exception as tag:
print(tag, "can not find tag")
So, the for loop makes it to possible scrol even if the while loop miss
I've been working on a research project that is looking to obtain a list of reference articles from the Brazil Hemeroteca (The desired page reference: http://memoria.bn.br/DocReader/720887x/839, needs to be collected from two hidden elements on the following page: http://memoria.bn.br/DocReader/docreader.aspx?bib=720887x&pasta=ano%20189&pesq=Milho). I asked a question a few weeks back that was answered and I was able to get things running well in regards to that, but now I've hit a new snag and I'm not exactly sure how to get around it.
The problem is that after the first form is filled in, the page redirects to a second page, which is a JavaScript/AJAX enabled page which I need to spool through all of the matches, which is done by means of clicking a button at the top of the page. The problem I'm encountering is that when clicking the next page button I'm dealing with elements on the page that are updating, which leads to Stale Elements. I've tried to implement a few pieces of code to detect when this "stale" effect occurs to indicate the page has changed, but this has not provided much luck. Here is the code I've implemented:

There are two "bugs" I'm trying to solve with this block. First, the very first page is always skipped in the loop (IE: fLink = ""), even though there is a test in there for it, I'm not sure why this occurs. The other bug is that the code will hang on specific pages completely randomly and the only way out is to break the code execution.
This block has been modified a few times so I know it's not the most "elegant" of solutions, but I'm starting to run out of time.
After taking a day off from this to think about it (And get some more sleep), I was able to figure out what was going on. The above code has three "big faults". This first is that it does not handle the StaleElementException versus the NoSuchElementException, which can occur while the page is shifting. Secondly, the loop condition was checking iteratively that a page wasn't in the list, which when entering the first run allowed the blank condition to load in directly as the loop was never executed on the first run (Should have used a do-while there, but I made more modifications). Finally, I made the silly error of only checking if the first hidden element was changing, when in fact that is the journal ID, and is pretty much constant through all.
The revisions began with an adaptation of a code on this other SO article to implement a "hold" condition until either one of the hidden elements changed:
from selenium.common.exceptions import StaleElementReferenceException
from selenium.common.exceptions import NoSuchElementException
def hold_until_element_changed(driver, element1_xpath, element2_xpath, old_element1_text, old_element2_text):
while True:
try:
element1 = driver.find_element_by_xpath(element1_xpath)
element2 = driver.find_element_by_xpath(element2_xpath)
if (element1.get_attribute('value') != old_element1_text) or (element2.get_attribute('value') != old_element2_text):
break
except StaleElementReferenceException:
break
except NoSuchElementException:
return False
time.sleep(1)
return True
I then modified the original looping condition, going back to the original "for loop" counter I had created without an internal loop, instead shooting a call to the above function to create the "hold" until the page had flipped, and voila, worked like a charm. (NOTE: I also upped the timeout on the next page button as this is what caused the locking condition)
for i in range(1, countTotal+1):
print("Waiting for page " + str(i) + " to load...")

change = hold_until_element_changed(browser, bibxpath, pagexpath, jidtext, jpagetext)
if(change == False):
print("Something went wrong.")
All in all, a good exercise in thought and some helpful links for me to consider when posting future questions. Thanks!
